Pedal should read peg....there will be some A engine common parts, but not a huge amount, check CMSNL part numbers...
Waiting for cam area pictures...no rush...no rush at all.

Are we going to see a YouTube series of vids a la Ryan's Garage UK? A 30 minute video on a Sunday morning would be a nice addition to my breakfast watchlist.

If you've caught the last video, the engine rebuild, he has low compression on the left pot too. He has said it was low before the rebuild and still is now. Waiting for the next episode to see if he has solved said issue.

Who knows what mystery's lie beneath......oh little green Honda...what are you hiding? Bear with. Simple cut price repairs or a bodge of epic proportions, Reminds me of a dodgy former employee with a very sick diesel Vectra, the one with the poorly designed oil pick up rubber seal that inevitably fails, the car was on finance and he decided to return it and so filled the engine with heavy gear oil, the finance company duly turned up, unfortunately he left plenty of fuel in it so instead of driving it onto the transport they decided to drive it back to wherever. It managed 2 miles before going bang, his dastardly scheme failed and he had to pay up, how we laughed as his bank account was emptied of three grand. Beware dodgy folk, fortunately for you Prince Comstar, SD engines are far more simple and cheap to buy, get to work fine fellow 👍😁

The problem was obvious once I had time finally to remove the rocker cover a few hours ago......not sure it's a good or bad thing tbh, I mean the actual cause of it. Will update with some clear in depth pics of the issue in the morning, going to bed now as cream krackered.

Oh the suspense is thrilling...
You have whizzed the engine over, it has sparks and the oil light goes out....
Engine doesn't sound right, maybe the starter inclined plane clutch/freewheel device ( it ain't a sprag clutch, they are very different, Humphrey Sandburg device..... ) Has broken/worn out...
Sealer between cylinders, well let's hope half a head bolt hole is not lying on the sump floor, cylinders and head has been off so be prepared...
What carnage is under that bad hair net....
A yank has put this engine together so expect something spectacular perhaps...
Preying for you dude...
Any evidence of the c/cases been apart ? Let's hope not...
